Solved: JavaScript not working when using multiple tokens

PavelNed · ‎12-08-2020

Hi guys,

I am currently struggling with making JS work at dashboard. My idea is to have a line graph with some data and add another line based on button clicked. I have set of buttons in html. When clicked, it calls JS function and changes token (token_foo) value to given string, which is then used in graph search. Well, this part works just fine. Until...

Now let's say I would like to color these buttons based on other tokens. Once I do it, buttons get the right color, but suddenly refuse to call the JS function. The same happens when I try to display token value by <p>$foo_color$</p>.

Shortened XML code:

<row>    
<panel>
      <html>
        <input type="button" id="foo" value="Foo" style="background-color:$foo_color$"/>
        <input type="button" id="boo" value="Boo" style="background-color:$boo_color$"/>
       </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <event>
        <search>
          <done>
            <condition match="'job.resultCount' == 0">
              <set token="foo_color">#00FF00</set>
            </condition>
            <condition match="'job.resultCount' &gt; 0">
              <set token="foo_color">#FF0000</set>
            </condition>
          </done>
          <query>index="foo_index"</query>
          <earliest>$time_picker.earliest$</earliest>
          <latest>$time_picker.latest$</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="list.drilldown">none</option>
        <option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option>
      </event>
    </panel>
  </row>

What am I missing?

Thanks.

Managed to sort it out by using more js and css.

In js I watch "foo_color" token and when changed, it appends class to "foo", which has either green or red color in it.

Shortened example in js:

var defaultTokenModel = mvc.Components.get("default");
defaultTokenModel.on("change:foo_color", function () {
   if (defaultTokenModel.get("foo_color" == "Faulty" && !($("#foo").hasClass('faulty'))) {
     $("#foo").addClass('faulty');
   } else if ($("#foo").hasClass('faulty')) {  
      $("#foo").removeClass('faulty');
   }
});
